- CAP Request — 2021-12-01 (CMS case 66)
- Closure Notice — 2022-02-23 (CMS case 66)

Charges are the hospital's list prices averaged over its 2024 Medicare cases; payments are what those cases actually brought in. Neither is what you will pay. For a planned procedure, ask the hospital for its price estimate or, if you are uninsured or self-paying, a good-faith estimate.
